Various server backups were deleted over time, so the FBI couldn’t examine them.

After State Dept. notified Hillary Clinton her records would be sought by House Benghazi Committee, copies of her email on the laptops of her attorneys Cheryl Mills and Heather Samuelson were wiped with BleachBit, and the FBI couldn’t review them.

After her emails were subpoenaed, Hillary Clinton’s email archive was also permanently deleted from her then-server “PRN” with BleachBit, and the FBI couldn’t review it.

Also after the subpoena, backups of the PRN server were manually deleted.

I’m not a lawyer, but that disappearing act has the look, feel, and smell of obstruction of justice.

I am not making these comments as a partisan. Hillary’s adversary has profound flaws, and I find them at least as troubling as Clinton’s.

In fact, one distressing similarity between the candidates is the suspicion that the rule of law does not encompass either one and would not tightly bind their actions as president.
